Stephen Dwoskin's "Erotic Masterpiece," TIMES FOR, Showing in The Carnal Screen series at the Roxy Cinema
/
Co-presented with the Museum of Sex, and introduced by Sean Price Williams, TIMES FOR (1970, featuring performance artist and filmmaker Carolee Schneemann) depicts an unfulfilled man who renders himself to the unrealized sensuality of four women. In his drifting search he fails and fades in the same loneliness as the women. The film is the reality and a metaphor for the intensities of sexual experience. “… His camera is a never-static instrument of his intrusion into the fantasy/reality of the relationships he is dealing with and forming …. TIMES FOR is one of the few erotic masterpieces.” –Program note, National Film Theatre, London
